Details

Traced the old seams with stitches. Took everything apart except for center back and arms  on monday. Did adjustments on the pattern, lower armholes, slightly tighter side seam and took 2 cm in center front and traced everything onto fabric again.  I usually rarely do adjustment on the pattern, only on the actual garment when I have fittings and won’t be reusing the pattern, but I can see why this I s a better way. The overview is so much easier if anything is confusing. Like, whý does these notches not match? Why is there to much fabric around this area?

Now I’m back on details. Did a mock of the pockets in the fabric I’m using to know what I’m getting myself in to and to refresh my pocketmaking memory. I will also be practicing on buttonholes on a bit of the fabric, one a day. By the time it’s time for the real ones they will be perfect 🙂
